As movie theatres around the world slowly begin to open their doors and begin showing first-run feature films, one of most critical aspects of their business will be reassuring moviegoers that their buildings are as clean and disinfected as can be. To that end, Digital Light Sources has added a long list of items to its offerings to help exhibitors reach that important goal.
In April, DLS reached an exclusive distribution agreement with American Ultraviolet to use its UVC disinfection equipment and systems to disinfect movie theatres in the United States in preparation for reopening.
“By being diligent and proactive against COVID-19, we can bring the proven power of UVC light in air sterilization and surface disinfection to any U.S. movie theatre building. The technology works to disinfect HVAC air as well as surfaces and water,” said Haddad, president of. “DLS is very excited to work with American Ultraviolet on this unique and much needed program. This opportunity can only emphasize our company’s position and commitment to help the cinema industry win back customer confidence for a sustained recovery from COVID-19.”
“American Ultraviolet’s UVC equipment, when utilized correctly, stops the spread of airborne microorganisms in the air and on surfaces,” said Meredith Stines, president of American Ultraviolet. “We are glad to be the supplier for DLS and look forward to long term relationship.”
Now DLS offers fast, safe and secure UV-C germicidal disinfection bio-shift chambers by Philips/Signify that enable 360-degree disinfection of small and large objects.
In addition, DLS now also offers FDA approved:
Breathable, disposable facemasks, made in the USA that are non woven, three-ply in blue or, optional, black
KN95 masks, in blue, imported
F M95i masks, five-ply, ultra soft for maximum comfort in blue or, optional, black, made in the USA
Washable masks, in two-ply, American cotton and nylon fabric in black, made in the USA
Disposable vinyl gloves in S, M, L, XL
Hand sanitizer available in 70 percent and 75 percent alcohol
Sterilization wipes, 75 percent alcohol
And the company can now provide:
Face shields with goggles

“For the foreseeable future, keeping moviegoers safe and healthy will be an exhibitor’s most important job,” said Haddad. “Digital Light Sources is here to help.”
